Bay Area PSA: evictions & bulldozers at the Albany Landfill, protest tomorrow

also, before i sleep, this came in from asarwate:

it sounds like there's going to be a mass eviction and "cleanup" at the Albany Landfill, starting tomorrow morning and running for the next two weeks. there is a protest planned, starting at 9am.

i will likely go down that way whenever i get up & moving tomorrow. the Albany Landfill is one of my favorite places here, part of what makes me glad to live nearby; the loss of that space and art and community would be a great one.
